It's all here: devout, brutal, misogynist, controlling -- Islam. Check this out from The Right Scoop (thanks to John Q):

THE SUN UK
– AN ex-girlfriend of dead Boston bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev has told how
he tried to brainwash her into becoming a Muslim fanatic who hated
America.

Nadine Ascencao, 24, said Tamerlan made her wear an Islamic hijab and
pray to Allah and slapped her when she wore Western clothes.

But she was so blindly in love with the handsome boxer who had taken her virginity, she did her utmost to make him happy.

Nadine said: “I went to his mosque a couple of times and even looked
into converting to make him happy. I thought, ‘This is crazy’ — but I
still did it for him.

“Tamerlan had taken my virginity and said he loved me because I was
pure and hadn’t been with any other guys. I was in love and scared he’d
leave me if I didn’t do what he said. Looking back I had a lucky
escape.”

During their three-year relationship she watched him change from a
cannabis-smoking, party-loving teenager into a violent extremist.

She said: “One minute he’s this funny, normal guy who liked boxing
and having fun, the next he is praying four times a day, watching
Islamic videos and talking insane nonsense.

“He became extremely religious and tried to brainwash me to follow
Islam. Tamerlan said I couldn’t be with him unless I became a Muslim. He
wanted me to hate America like he did.

He wouldn’t let me watch TV or listen to the radio. He’d say, ‘TV is the
project of Satan’ and claimed Satan sent us messages through commercial
music.”

The couple even stopped having sex after he said it was wrong because they
were not married.

Tamerlan, a Chechen who emigrated to the US with his family in 2002, became
obsessed with Nadine’s clothes. She said: “He hated my tight trousers and
made me wear long skirts. Towards the end I was wearing a hijab.

“He once ripped a pair of my jeans and hit me in the face with them. Tamerlan
told me I should only talk to Muslim girls, not other ‘slutty’ girls.”
Besotted Nadine moved into a flat in the house where the Tsarnaev family
lived to be near Tamerlan.

And she was heartbroken when she learned he was secretly seeing another girl.
Her rival was Katherine Russell, a student who was to become Tamerlan’s wife
after converting to Islam. Crafty Tamerlan was soon playing the two women
off against one another.

Nadine said: “He once made me learn a verse of an Islamic prayer and if I got
it wrong he’d say, ‘Well Katherine can do it’.”

Horrific ... marathon bombing

Tamerlan even attacked Nadine when he found her heading off to a friend’s pool
party wearing cut-off jeans and a crop top.

She said: “He was shouting and screaming at me. He slapped me across the face
really hard.”

Nadine called the police and Tamerlan was arrested and spent a night in the
cells. Once out on bail he begged Nadine’s forgiveness.

But as soon as she dropped the charges Tamerlan dumped her and moved in with
Katherine. Nadine’s relationship was over and within six months Katherine
was pregnant with Tamerlan’s daughter.

Nadine put Tamerlan behind her and barely gave him a second thought until the
early hours of April 19 when the FBI turned up at her home asking questions
about her ex.

A few hours earlier officers had killed Tamerlan in a shoot-out in Watertown,
Massachusetts.

Brother Dzhokhar, who is now in custody, was still on the run.

Nadine, who asked The Sun to obscure her face in photos for fear of reprisals,
said: “When they said Tamerlan was dead, I didn’t cry.

This was our worst nightmare. Despite our best efforts to raise
awareness about the jihad threat, the mainstream media and government
denial about its reality has borne terrible fruit: a monstrous Islamic
attack took place on the streets of Boston, targeting mothers and
children, families and freedom-loving people. The bombs were designed
not to blow up buildings but to maim, mutilate and tear through flesh
and bone.

Now everyone is suddenly all over the jihad threat. Last week, Bill
Maher dared to go off the liberal reservation and note that Islam
incited more violence than Christianity – whereupon his politically
correct guest needled him with “I have a girl for you, Pam [sic] Geller.” But
Maher stood his ground and ultimately said to his guest, “I should
introduce you to Pam Geller” – thus implying that I am right to be concerned about Islamic jihad and Islamic supremacism.

And last week Fox News featured its house liberal, Bob Beckel,
warning about the dangers of jihad terrorism and even saying that Muslim
students should be barred from entering the country (which,
incidentally, is something I have never advocated).

The irony was thick. In 2010 I had a sharp exchange with Beckel
on Fox when he decried my work sounding the alarm about jihad terror
and Islamic supremacism in the U.S. The Boston jihad bombings have been a
gruesome, horrible wake-up call, revealing how the American people have
been betrayed by the Obama administration, the media and the Homeland
Security apparatus which, instead of dealing realistically with jihad
terror, have been fixated upon nonexistent “right-wing terrorists” –
like me.

The issue here is larger than me or my work. For years now, leftist
enablers of jihad and Islamic supremacism have labeled their opponents
“hateful,” “extreme” and “right wing” – as if defense of the freedom of
speech and the equality of rights for all people before the law were
“right wing.”

The defenders of freedom have put up with an appalling level of
defamation to educate and warn the American people about the gravest
national security threat this great country faces.

Our work is dedicated to human rights – the freedom of speech, the
freedom of conscience and individual rights. It is a noble cause, a
righteous cause. But the defamation of those who work for this cause is a
key weapon of leftists and Islamic supremacists. Just recently leftist
and Islamic supremacists mounted a smear campaign to intimidate a
synagogue in Great Neck, Long Island into dropping my speaking
appearance there. Fortunately, two other rabbis with spine stood up to
them and had me speak at their synagogues instead. But the pattern was
clear: the cancellation by the Great Neck Synagogue sent the message
that if leftists and Muslims defame those they hate loudly enough and
for a long enough time, they will succeed in getting them silenced.

Key weapons in the arsenal of these foes of free speech are the
increasingly defamatory Anti-Defamation League and the notorious
communist hate organization, the Southern Poverty Law Center, or SPLC.
Both tar with the label “hate group” any organization that differs from
their political agenda. Not coincidentally, a follower of the SPLC
recently attempted to assassinate Family Research Council, or FRC, head
Tony Perkins and other FRC officials because the SPLC had smeared the
FRC as a “hate group.” This shows that the real hatred and incitement to
violence come from the left – from the very groups that smear
counter-jihadists as “hateful.” Nonetheless, the mainstream media
constantly use the smears from these groups to marginalize and demonize
the resistance to jihad terror.

But now the choice is clear. Those who claim to oppose the ideology
of the Boston jihad bombers cannot consistently oppose
counter-jihadists, for our work is dedicated solely to defending
individual rights against the encroachment of that bloody ideology.

As the enemedia continues to search for any 'root cause' that doesn't involve a Koran, it keeps getting sillier and sillier.

According
to the New York Times, poor Tamerlan Tsarnaev turned into a Muslim
terrorist and murdered children because he couldn't withstand losing the
ability to compete in the Golden Gloves boxing matches.

The Golden Gloves changed the rules, you see, and that set him off.

I am sure that it is true of most folks, that life's disappointments has them blowing up women and children at a Patriot's Day event in the cause of Islam.

It
was a blow the immigrant boxer could not withstand: After capturing his
second consecutive title as the Golden Gloves heavyweight champion of
New England in 2010, Tamerlan Anzorovich Tsarnaev was barred from the
national Tournament of Champions because he was not a U.S. citizen.

The
cocksure fighter, a flamboyant dresser partial to white fur and
snakeskin, had been looking forward to redeeming the loss he suffered
the previous year in the first round, when the judges awarded his
opponent the decision, drawing boos from spectators who considered
Tsarnaev dominant.

From one year to the next,
though, the tournament rules had changed, disqualifying legal permanent
residents – not only Tsarnaev, then 23 who was Soviet-born of Chechen
and Dagestani heritage, but several other New England contenders, too.
His aspirations frustrated, he dropped out of boxing competition
entirely, and his life veered in a completely different direction.

Tsarnaev
portrayed his quitting as a reflection of the sport’s incompatibility
with his growing devotion to Islam. But as dozens of interviews with
friends, acquaintances and relatives from Cambridge to Dagestan showed,
that devotion, and the suspected radicalization that accompanied it, was
a path he followed most avidly only after his more secular dreams were
dashed in 2010 and he was left adrift.

His
trajectory, authorities say, eventually led the frustrated athlete and
his loyal younger brother, Dzhokhar, to bomb one of the most famous
athletic events in this country, killing three people and wounding more
than 200 at the Boston Marathon. They say it led Tsarnaev, his
application for citizenship stalled, and his brother, a new citizen and a
seemingly well-adjusted college student, to attack their American
hometown on Patriots’ Day, April 15.

Tsarnaev
now lies in the state medical examiner’s office, his body riddled with
bullets after a confrontation with the police four days after the
bombings. He left behind an American-born wife who had converted to
Islam, a 3-year-old daughter with curly hair, a 19-year-old brother
charged with using a weapon of mass destruction, and a puzzle: Why did
these two young men seemingly turn on the country that had granted them
asylum?

Check the link for the full and lengthy article that contains much more of the same.

Over the last few days Fox News has featured its house liberal, Bob
Beckel, warning about the dangers of jihad terrorism and even saying
that Muslim students should be barred from entering the country (which,
incidentally, is something I have never advocated).

The irony was thick. In 2010 I had a sharp exchange with Beckel
on Fox when he decried my work sounding the alarm about jihad terror
and Islamic supremacism in the U.S. The Boston jihad bombings have been a

have been betrayed by the Obama Administration, the media and the
Homeland Security apparatus which, instead of dealing realistically
with jihad terror, has been fixated upon non-existent “right wing
terrorists” — like me.

“Hateful rightwing extremists like Geller, and countless
of her type on social media, quickly, objectionably express themselves
immediately upon the occurrence of an event like the marathon bombing,
and a certain type of leftwing voice finds it more important to
establish the Gellers as mistaken and beyond the pale than to respond
directly and with clarity to the primary offense.”

Although Adler attacks me personally, the issue here is
larger than me or my work. Adler echoes leftists enablers of jihad and
Islamic supremacism by labeling their opponents “hateful,” “extreme”
and “rightwing” – as if defense of the freedom of speech and the
equality of rights for all people before the law were “rightwing.”

And last week, Bill Maher dared to go off the liberal
reservation and note that Islam incited more violence than Christianity
– whereupon his politically correct guest needled him with “I have a

said to his guest, “I should introduce you to Pam Geller” — thus
implying that I am right to be concerned about Islamic jihad and Islamic
supremacism.

But that was an anomaly. The defenders of freedom have put
up with an appalling level of defamation in order to educate and warn
the American people about the gravest national security threat this
great country faces.

Our work is dedicated to human rights — the freedom of

pattern was clear: the cancellation by the Great Neck Synagogue sent
the message that if leftists and Muslims defame those they hate loudly

Key weapons in the arsenal of these foes of free speech
are the increasingly defamatory Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and the
notorious communist hate organization, the Southern Poverty Law Center
(SPLC). Both tar with the label “hate group” any organization that
differs from their political agenda. Not coincidentally, a follower of
the SPLC recently attempted to assassinate Family Research Council
(FRC) head Tony Perkins and other FRC officials because the SPLC had
smeared the FRC as a “hate group.” This shows that the real hatred and
incitement to violence come from the left – from the very groups that
smear counter-jihadists as “hateful.” Nonetheless, the mainstream media
constantly uses the smears from these groups to marginalize and
demonize the resistance to jihad terror.

And so it is with profound regret that despite our best
efforts, a monstrous Islamic attack took place on the streets of
Boston, targeting mothers and children, families and freedom-loving
people. The bombs were designed not to blow up buildings but to maim,
mutilate and tear through flesh and bone.

This was our worst nightmare.

A. Jay Adler claims to oppose the ideology of the Boston
jihad bombers; he cannot then consistently oppose counter-jihadists,
for our work is dedicated solely to defending individual rights against
the encroachment of that bloody ideology.

It is a sad day when free people turn against those who
are standing up most strongly for the Jews, Israel, and freedom in
general. But unfortunately, this problem is pandemic. Even now, in
light of the Boston jihad horror, my colleagues and I have been largely
bypassed for newly minted experts like Beckel, who have no
understanding of these issues. Bill O’Reilly still gives a platform to
the Hamas-tied Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), allowing
them to deceive the American people and proselytize for Islam. The
blacklist on consistent and well-informed voices of freedom must end.
Now.

Washington • Russian authorities secretly recorded a telephone conversation in 2011 in which one of the Boston bombing suspects vaguely discussed jihad with his mother, officials said Saturday, days after the U.S. government finally received details about the call.

In another conversation, the mother of now-dead bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev was recorded talking to someone in southern Russia who is under FBI investigation in an unrelated case, officials said.

The conversations are significant because, had they been revealed earlier, they might have been enough evidence for the FBI to initiate a more thorough investigation of the Tsarnaev family.

As it was, Russian authorities told the FBI only that they had concerns that Tamerlan and his mother were religious extremists. With no additional information, the FBI conducted a limited inquiry and closed the case in June 2011.

Two years later, authorities say Tamerlan and his brother, Dzhohkar, detonated two homemade bombs near the finish line of the Boston Marathon, killing three and injuring more than 260. Tamerlan was killed in a police shootout and Dzhohkar is under arrest.

Dagestan, Thursday, April 25, 2013. (AP)

BOSTON (AP) — The mother of the Boston
Marathon bombing suspects was added to a federal terrorism database
about 18 months before the attack, government officials said Thursday.

Two government officials said the CIA
had Zubeidat Tsarnaeva’s name listed along with that of her son Tamerlan
Tsarnaev after Russia contacted the agency in 2011 with concerns that
the two were religious militants about to travel to Russia. The
officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not
authorized to speak publicly about the case.

Being in the classified TIDE database
does not automatically mean a person is suspected by the U.S. of
terrorist activity and does not automatically subject someone to
surveillance, security screening or travel restrictions.

The disclosure came as the surviving
bombing suspect, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, was moved overnight from a hospital
to a federal prison medical center, and as FBI agents searched for
evidence in a landfill near the college he was attending.

Tsarnaev, 19, was taken from Beth
Israel Deaconess Medical Center, where he was recovering from a gunshot
wound to the throat and other injuries suffered during a getaway
attempt, and transferred to the Federal Medical Center Devens, about 40
miles from Boston, the U.S. Marshals Service said. The facility at the
former Fort Devens Army base treats federal prisoners.

AP

FBI agents picked through a landfill
Friday near the campus of the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth,
where Tsarnaev was a student. FBI spokesman Jim Martin would not say
what investigators were looking for.

Tsarnaev is charged with joining with
his older brother, now dead, in setting off the shrapnel-packed
pressure-cooker bombs that killed three people and wounded more than 260
at the marathon finish line April 15.

The brothers are ethnic Chechens from
Russia who came to the U.S. about a decade ago with their parents.
Investigators have said it appears so far that the brothers were angry
about the U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and had been radicalized via
Islamic material on the Internet instead of any direct contact with
terrorist organizations, but they warned it is still not certain.

A team of investigators from the U.S.
Embassy in Moscow has questioned both parents in Makhachkala, Russia,
this week, spending many hours with the mother in particular over two
days. The suspect’ father, Anzor Tsarnaev, said the questions were
mostly about their sons’ activities and interests.

AP

The father said on Thursday that he is
soon leaving Russia for the United States, to visit one son and lay the
other to rest. The suspects’ mother, who was charged with shoplifting
in the U.S. last summer, said she has been assured by lawyers that she
would not be arrested, but said she was still deciding whether to go.

“You know, my kids would be with us,
and we would be, like, fine,” she said. “So, yes, I would prefer not to
live in America now! Why did I even go there? Why? I thought America is
going to, like, protect us, our kids, it’s going to be safe.”

Also on Thursday, officials said that
three days after the Boston attack, the Tsarnaev brothers planned to
drive to New York and bomb Times Square in a spur-of-the-moment scheme
that fell apart almost immediately when they realized the SUV they had
hijacked was low on gas. They had five pipe bombs and a pressure-cooker
explosive in the vehicle, police said.

“We don’t know if we would have been
able to stop the terrorists had they arrived here from Boston,” Mayor
Michael Bloomberg said. “We’re just thankful that we didn’t have to find
out that answer.”

New York Police Commissioner Raymond
Kelly said Dzhokhar Tsarnaev told interrogators from his hospital bed
that he and his brother decided the night of April 18 to launch an
attempt in New York. But when the Tsarnaev brothers stopped at a gas
station on the outskirts of Boston, the carjacking victim they were
holding hostage escaped and called police, Kelly said.

Later that night, police intercepted the brothers in a gunbattle that left 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev dead.

The word of a short-lived plan to bomb
Times Square made some New Yorkers shudder at the thought of another
terrorist attack on the city.

Outside Penn Station, Wayne Harris, a
schoolteacher from Queens, said: “We don’t know when a terrorist attack
will happen next in New York, but it will happen. It didn’t happen this
time, by the grace of God. God protected us this time.”

The name of the dead Boston bombing suspect was placed on a federal government terrorist database 18 months before the marathon attack, according to US officials.

Sources close to the investigation said that the Russian-born Chechen brothers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev had been radicalised through jihadist materials on the internet.

According to the US officials Tamerlan was added by the CIA to a classified database of known and suspected terrorists - the Terrorist Identities Datamart Environment, known as Tide.

The 26-year-old amateur boxer, who according to his aunt had become a devout Muslim in recent years, had been investigated following a request from Russia's security service, the FSB, which had concerns he had become a follower of radical Islam.

In March 2011, about six months earlier, the FBI had separately investigated Tamerlan, also at Russia's request, but the FBI found no ties to terrorism, officials said.

However, the spelling the FBI used in its investigation was not the same as the spelling used by the CIA.

His six-month trip to Russia in January 2012 triggered no alerts because the FBI had closed its case and Tamerlan was not considered a risk.

"We are convinced of the innocence of our brother. There is no evidence
that he is guilty. America needs a new enemy." Once again we see the
Islamic supremacist deflection of responsibility: any evil perpetrated
by Muslims anywhere in the world is always, always the fault of someone
else. Even the moderates and pseudo-moderates in the U.S. who condemned
the Boston bombings disclaimed any need for examining how the texts and
teachings of Islam incite to violence and supremacism, and doing
anything about that.

Vienna Chechens called upon their compatriots via Facebook to protest
outside the U.S. Embassy. They demanded solidarity for the Boston
bombers, and solidarity for Muslims and Chechens, because of allegations
that the FBI had falsified evidence against the brothers. The
"Pro-Tsarnaev" Rally had called for the demonstration via Facebook.

The police went in the afternoon, and assumed that the demo would remain on a small scale. Roadblocks were not planned.

Finally, about 4:30PM, around 40 peaceful demonstrators marched
toward a large contingent of police. Men and women demonstrated
separately. Among the protesters were both female veil wearers and women
in Western dress.

"We are convinced of the innocence of our brother. There is no
evidence that he is guilty. America needs a new enemy," read the
Chechens' signs....

Despite the bloody reality of Boston, the smears, defamation and lies persist. Good piece over at The American Thinker:

"Bill Maher Exposes the Leftist Islamophobia Ruse for Even Leftists to See"
By William Sullivan

On Friday's Real Time program on HBO, Bill Maher hosted an interview
with Brian Levin, the director of the Center for Study of Hate and
Extremism. It became clear within thirty seconds that Levin was not
attending the religious parity party he had expected.

One
can understand why Levin might harbor such expectations. Maher has a
pretty apparent disdain for religious adherents of all stripes. But in
that first thirty seconds, Maher spoke, with a pointedly singular focus,
of the hypocrisy we witness in such fanatical terrorists as the
Tsarnaev brothers, who bombed the Boston Marathon last week. "If you
read what the older brother wrote on his, uh, on the internet," Maher
began, "it says his worldview: Islam. Personal priorities: career and
money. And we see a lot of this; I mean, the 9/11 hijackers went to
strip clubs the night before they got on the plane."

Two
references to notorious acts of Islamic terrorism were enough for
Levin. He interjected by saying that "it's not like people who are
Muslims who do wacky things have a monopoly on it. We have hypocrites
across faiths, Jewish, Christian, who say they're out for God and end up
doing not-so-nice things."

Before
he could even finish this rather boilerplate attempt to draw religious
equivalency between the "not-so-nice things" religious people do and
acts of murder and terror sanctified by Islamic groups, Maher had
written him off, replying, "You know what, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's liberal b------- right there."

Levin,
seemingly blindsided, appealed to the fact that Maher's pointing out
hypocrisy in all religion is how he makes his living, but Maher refused
to relent.

There's
only one faith that kills you, or wants to kill you, if you draw a bad
cartoon of the prophet. There's only one faith that kills you, or wants
to kill you, if you renounce the faith. An ex-Muslim is a very
dangerous thing. Talk to Salman Rushdie after the show about Christian
versus Islam. So I'm just saying, let's keep it real.

This
is the moment where Levin's agenda was exposed, and anti-jihadists like
Pamela Geller were thoroughly vindicated, even if not explicitly.
"Well," Levin dawdled, "I guess I have a girl for you, Pam Geller, you
could maybe meet," in an attempt to be funny. Maher, confusedly turning
to the audience, replied, "Uh, I don't know what that means."

"Well,
she's an Islamophobe," Levin said. There it is. To those in the in
the audience who were paying attention, it became pretty apparent that
when presented with these uncomfortable facts by someone who cannot
readily be denounced as a hateful Islamophobe, the Islamic apologist can
do nothing more than reach into his Islamophobia rolodex for an example
to get his point across. And in this case, that example is a figure
who is possibly obscure to Maher, and entirely abstract to the
conversation.

If
Maher could have readily recalled exactly who Pamela Geller is and
reference her work, he would likely have explained to Levin that
juxtaposing Islamists who would bless the murder of apostates with
Pamela Geller, who has never advocated that her readers commit murder,
is a silly, slanderous thing to do. But though Maher didn't
specifically discuss Geller here, he did vindicate her in terms of the
anti-jihad message she works to disseminate. And here's why.

Much
of what leaves Bill Maher's mouth after this point encapsulates
Geller's message in such a way that it will be understood by an audience
that might otherwise write it off if a figure like Geller had said it.
To the progressive audience members who know who Geller is, or maybe have watched the many propaganda charades disguised as documentaries against her, Geller has the letter I branded on her -- so her words would likely be immediately dismissed as hate.

So
Maher gets to say what Geller does and would say, without having Levin
immediately dismiss the truth as Islamophobia, which follows:

I
am not an Islamophobe, that's wrong. I am a truth lover. [Approving
applause] All religions are not alike. As many people have pointed
out, The Book of Mormon, did you see the show? [Levin says no, as he's unable to get tickets.] Okay. Can you imagine if they did The Book of Islam?
[Pause.] Could they do that? There is only one religion that threatens
violence and carries it out for things like that. Could they do The Book of Islam on Broadway?

Levin
replied with an unconvincing "Possibly so," looking to quickly change
the subject. But before he could, Maher sardonically demanded, "Tell me
what color the sky is in your world."

Visibly
flustered, Levin continued, grasping the only arrow left in his
quiver. He suggested that there are 1.4 billion Muslims in the world,
and yes, a lot of them are extremists "who would slit your throats," but
"there are also folks that are fine, upstanding people." So he's
worried that this national audience might be being exposed to "hatred"
of Muslims.

Unmoved,
Maher simply said, "No, you're wrong about that. And you're wrong
about your facts. Obviously, most Muslim people are not terrorists.
But ask most Muslim people in the world -- if you insult the prophet,
do you have what's coming to you? It's more than just a fringe
element."

There
it is. Truth, wrapped with a bow for the leftists who might otherwise
reject it, which advances the national dialogue in a positive direction.

There
is more to a message than its content -- delivery is essential. The
problem with the debate regarding Islam is that the channels for
dialogue, which should be open and honest, are closed and selectively directed by social engineers, like Brian Levin, who value political correctness over truth. Generally speaking, the right does not believe these social engineers at all, and the left far too blindly accepts their nonsense.

This is the reason for the profundity I found in the interview
with Ruslav Tsarni, the Tsarnaev brothers' Muslim uncle who,
convincingly, I believe, denounced armed jihad and expressed a genuine
devotion to American values. Americans are free to view Tsarni's
testimony as taqiyya (a religiously sanctified lie to advance Islam, as many Comments
on the article apparently believe), but the point is, the message that
there are Muslims who abhor Islamic violence and value freedom is much
better-received by such an example than being told what to believe by a
leftist opinion-maker.

Likewise,
hearing a leftist opponent of religion denounce the notion of religious
parity while speaking the truth about Islam's role as a uniquely
malignant contributor to global terrorism is much better-received by
leftists when heard from Bill Maher than from Pamela Geller, who, in my
opinion, has been wrongfully ostracized from the discussion among
leftists.

So,
thanks to Bill Maher, the anti-jihadists' message may have found a new
audience. And truth, when allowed to permeate any dialogue, is never a
bad thing.

The surviving Boston Marathon bombing suspect has told investigators
that he and his brother discussed detonating the rest of their
explosives in Times Square, senior law enforcement officials told NBC
News on Thursday.

The surviving suspect, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev,
initially told investigators that they planned to go to New York to
party after the Boston attack, the officials said. The New York police
commissioner also gave this account Wednesday.

Under subsequent
questioning, the officials said, Tsarnaev said that the brothers had
discussed a follow-up attack on Times Square.

Once again coming to the aid of jihadists. This is a pattern with
the Muslim Brotherhood stooge in the White House. On Christmas day in
2009, Umar
Farouk Abdulmutallab (aka The Underwear Bomber), tried to blow up a
plane with an underwear bomb. Using the Public
Safety Exception, Abdulmutallab was interrogated -- but only for 50
minutes.

In a similar move, the White House withheld evidence in the Fort Hood
jihad, which stymied the prosecution of the coldblooded devout Muslim.

Thanks to the "Public Safety Exception"
to Miranda (which was created in 1980), the government is not forced to
choose between treating a suspect as an enemy combatant or immediately
allowing said suspect to hide behind an attorney and the right to remain
silent. In extraordinary circumstances, when a suspect is believed to
be part of a broader conspiracy that might result in the loss of
innocent life, authorities have 48 hours to question the suspect before
mirandizing him.

Dzokhar Tsarnaev, the man suspected of being a co-conspirator in the
Boston Marathon bombings, was mirandized after only 16 hours of
questioning. According to a Fox News,
FBI officials were "stunned" when federal District Court Judge Marianne
Bowler arrived at the hospital and read Tsnarnaev his rights. Sources
told Fox News that this premature action might have hurt the
investigation.

Apparently, prior to Judge Bowler reading him his rights, Tsarnaev
was cooperating with investigators. The arrival of public defenders and
the Justice Department, though, compromised the interrogation and now
the belief is that "valuable intelligence may have been sacrificed as a
result."

This is not the first time the Obama Administration has been
criticized for its rush to award a terrorism suspect the right to remain
silent and to hide behind an attorney. On Christmas day in 2009, Umar
Farouk Abdulmutallab (aka The Underwear Bomber), attempted to blow up a
plane with plastic explosive hidden in his pants. Using the Public
Safety Exception, Abdulmutallab was interrogated -- but only for 50
minutes.

After being read his rights and receiving medical care, Abdulmutallab chose to remain silent.

And he did. "Tamerlan Tsarnaev vowed to die for Islam;
judge may have prematurely stopped brother's interrogation, sources
say," by Megyn Kelly for FoxNews.com, April 25:

EXCLUSIVE: Boston Marathon bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev sent
text messages to his mother as early as 2011 suggesting he was willing
to die for Islam, the FBI told lawmakers this week according to two
officials with knowledge of the Capitol Hill briefing.

Tsarnaev, who was killed days after the April 15 bombing in a
shootout with police, is said to have embraced radical Islam in recent
years and recruited his younger brother, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, to carry out
the attack that killed three and wounded more than 180 near the finish
line of the world's most prestigious road race.

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was caught alive but wounded on Friday and charged
with use of a weapon of mass destruction, for which he could get the
death penalty.

The FBI filed a federal criminal complaint against the 19-year-old on
Sunday, and federal District Court Judge Marianne Bowler arrived at the
hospital where he is being treated to preside over his initial hearing
Monday, when she read him his Miranda rights.

[FBI officials told The Associated Press Wednesday that Tsarnaev
acknowledged to investigators his role in the attacks before he was
advised of his constitutional rights. He reportedly said he was only
recently recruited by his brother to be part of the attack.]

But Fox News' sources say there was confusion about Bowler's
timing, with some voicing concerns that investigators were not given
enough time to question Dzhokhar under the "public safety exception"
invoked by the Justice Department.

This cluster*** is looking more and more like Benghazi. And to think that Obama put the FBI in charge of the Benghazi investigation -- now we know why. See no jihad, hear no jihad, speak no jihad. The latest bombshell is stunning. After the Russians went to the FBI with concerns over Tamerlan Tsarnaev's jihad activity and were summarily ignored, the Russians went to the CIA, who wanted to put the Boston bomber on the terror watch list. But it was not to be, not in O-merica.

But the Obama culture of incompetence and sharia sensitivity goes far beyond the FBI. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano keeps changing her story. DHS never heard about until they had. Napolitano said at Tuesday's hearing on immigration reform that her agency knew of alleged Boston
bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev’s trip to Russia last year, even though his
name was misspelled on a travel document. This was news to Sen. Lindsey
Graham (R-S.C.), who told the secretary that it contradicted what he’d
been told by the FBI.

He even stated yesterday on “Fox and Friends”: “The reason we didn’t know he went over to Russia is because his name was misspelled.”

“They
told me that they had no knowledge of him leaving or coming back so I
would like to talk to you more about this case,” Graham told Napolitano
today as she testified on sweeping immigration legislation.

Napolitano said that even though
Tsarnaev’s name was misspelled, redundancies in the system allowed his
departure to be captured by U.S. authorities in January 2012. But she
said that by the time he came back six months later, an FBI alert on him
had expired and so his re-entry was not noted.

“The system pinged when he was leaving
the United States. By the time he returned all investigations had been
closed,” Napolitano said.

The lying is profound, and mirrors the constantly changing narrative on the Saudi national who was first grilled in the Boston bombing. Now this:

The CIA directly asked
the FBI to place Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the elder of the two suspected
Boston Marathon bombers, on its counterterrorism watchlist handled by
the National Counterterrorism Center. That request came after the
Russian government asked the CIA to keep an eye on Tsarnaev. It also
came a year after the FBI closed its initial inquiry into Tsarnaev based
on Russian warnings.

The
watchlist, known as the Terrorist Identities Datamart Environment
(TIDE), is actually a master watchlist that supplies information for a
series of smaller watchlists, including the FBI’s central Terrorist
Screening Database, and the infamous Transportation Security
Administration no-fly list.

Despite
the fact that Tsarnaev was added to the list, Secretary of Homeland
Security Janet Napolitano testified yesterday that Tsarnaev was not
monitored when he returned from Russia in 2012. The FBI now says that
the Russians were fine with the level of scrutiny placed on Tsarnaev by
the US government. “They were satisfied,” an unnamed official told the Washington Post. “We had checked on their information.”

No wonder they were satisfied. The Tsarnaevs didn’t attack their marathon.

‘Armed and Dangerous’: Latest Revelations on Saudi National Once a ‘Person of Interest’ in Boston Bombings

But first, here are a few background points on how the case developed:

A Saudi national originally identified as a “person of interest” in
the Boston Marathon bombing was set to be deported under section 212, 3B
— “Security and related grounds” — “Terrorist activities” after the
bombing on April 15

TheBlaze received word that the government may not deport the Saudi national — identified as Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi — as the story gained traction on April 18.

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano refused to answer
questions on the subject by Rep. Jeff Duncan (R-SC) on Capitol Hill on
April 18, saying the inquiry was “so full of misstatements and
misapprehension that it’s just not worthy of an answer.”

New info provided to TheBlaze reveals Alharbi’s file was altered on
the evening of April 17 to disassociate him from the initial charges

Sources say April 22 that the Saudi’s student visa specifically
allows him to go to school in Findlay, Ohio, though he appears to have
an apartment in Boston, Mass. A DHS official told TheBlaze Alharbi
properly transferred his student visa to a school in Massachusetts.

On his radio program, Beck began with
an overview of how the case unfolded, noting that Alharbi has rapidly
gone from “person of interest, to witness, to victim, to nobody.”

Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano even said
yesterday that Alharbi was just “in the wrong place at the wrong time”
and was “never a subject,” after ridiculing inquiries into the matter
last week.

But Wednesday, Beck presented new
information after a Blaze source directly read the original event file,
and multiple government sources with knowledge of the case and files
contributed their knowledge.

Napolitano could serve “jail time for perjury,” Beck declared, and she will be “the first to fall.”

Here are a couple of new points, as Beck related them:

The event file created for Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi indicated he was “armed and dangerous”

Alharbi was admitted into the country under a “special advisory option,”
which is usually reserved for visiting politicians, VIPs, or
journalists. The event file cover page indicates he was granted his
status without full vetting.

One of the first excuses given by law enforcement when confronted
about Alharbi’s pending deportation was an expired visa. But according
to the event file, his visa is good until 11-NOV-2016.

The event file indicates he entered the U.S. on 08/28/12 in Boston,
MA but says he is a student at the University of Findlay, in Findlay,
Ohio. He has an apartment in Boston, and doesn’t seem to have been a
full-time student in Ohio.

When a file is created in the system, the author(s) are notified via
email when it is accessed and given the email address of the person
accessing, so there is a record within the government data system of who
was there. It was amended to remove the deportation reference, then someone later went in and tried to destroy both the original event file and an amended versions. We won’t say who at this time, but copies have already been made.

The original event file was reviewed and approved by two high level
agents – Chief Watch Commander Maimbourg and Watch Commander Mayfield.

Here is the text of the cover of the event file, which reveals still more:

Subject,

ALHARBI, ABDULRAHMAN ALI E

DOB 03/12/1993

COC SAUDI ARABIA

Subject is an exact match to NO FLY TPN# 1037506192. Derogatory information reviewed by W/C Mayfield and CW/C Maimbourg was found to be sufficient to request Visa revocation. NTC-P is requesting revocation of Foil# e3139541. Subject is inadmissible to the U.S. under INA 212(a)(3)(B)(i)(II). SAO was not completed prior to Visa
issuance. Subject is currently in the United States, admitted F1
student, at Boston POE on 08/28/2012. Subject is a student at THE
UNIVERSITY OF FINDLAY, 1000 NORTH MAIN STREET FINDLAY, OHIO 45840-3695. Subject has One (1) prior event #1648067, Fins promoted, NT record in place, No scheduled found at this time. [Emphasis added]

And here is a photo of the page:

(Photo: TheBlaze)

Beck explained: “Derogatory information reviewed...That means, we have been presented bad information…and it was reviewed, and found to be sufficient. Subject has One (1) prior event...[That means] when they opened this when he was at the hospital, they found he’s already in the system.”

“A 212, 3B [is] the biggest warning we
can put on anybody,” Beck explained for those unfamiliar with the
term. “You do not put people’s name on there easily…this is a terrorist
designation, and there is a panel of agencies that you have to go and
make your case to. It’s not like you’re standing in the hospital room
and they say: ‘Make him a 212,3B.’ And if they ​are, they’re abusing
their power….It is so rare that somebody’s name is taken off outside of
death, that none of ours sources can tell us that it’s ever happened.
It is laughable what Janet Napolitano said yesterday.”

Certainly, a litany of questions remain.

Was Alharbi considered “armed and dangerous” before the Boston bombing, or at
it? Was it related to something they found at his apartment? Was his
prior “event” from the days prior, at the bombing, or was it from an
earlier period in his life?

Moreover, how was he admitted into the
country under a “special advisory option?” How many students receive
that privilege, particularly without proper security clearance?

In Beck’s estimation, the entire
situation at the least amounts to an alarming lack of transparency, and
at the worst, an abuse of power and cover-up.

“This is not about this one guy,” Beck
noted, “but by the way — where is this extraordinarily dangerous man?
Ask that question, you’re not going to like the answer.”

“That’s what TheBlaze is releasing
today,” he continued. “Once they explain away all of this, if you want
to continue to discredit me, you will discredit yourself but more
importantly, you will put the citizens of this country at stake.”

There is no better friend in the free world to jihadists and islamic supremacists than President Obama, so why would anyone expect Obama to deem jihadists as "enemy combatants"? He has aligned with the racist, oppressive, misogynistic Islamic movements across the world, making it possible for them to take over whole swaths of the Middle East and Africa. So is anyone surprised? Major Hasan stll awaits trial four years after mowing down American soldiers on US soil in the cause of Islam.

It's like what Mayor Koch said after NY elected David Dinkins, the worst mayor in the history of New York City: "The people have spoken ... And they must be punished.”

Supreme Court: ‘There Is No Bar to this Nation's
Holding One of Its Own Citizens as an Enemy Combatant' Weekly Standard

One note about the "enemy combatant"
controversy, including Jay Carney's new dumb statement confusing "enemy
combatant" status with "military commission" trials. Take a look at the
Supreme Court's decision in Hamdi v.
Rumsfeld (2004), the case that involved a U.S. citizen who was an enemy combatant.

The court plainly ruled in that
case that U.S. citizens can be held as enemy combatants. The court's
four-justice plurality (which included O'Connor, Breyer, Kennedy, and Rehnquist)
was unequivocal on this: "There is no bar to this Nation's holding one
of its own citizens as an enemy combatant." And while the U.S.
cannot hold an American enemy combatant "indefinitely," it is a "clearly
established principle of the law of war" that detention can last as long at the
hostilities do.

Now, the Court later held (in
Boumediene v. Bush(2008)) that persons deemed
to be "enemy combatants" have a right to challenge that designation in court.
But that did not change the court's previous holding that U.S. citizens can be
enemy combatants. Nothing in the law stops President Obama from determining
whether Dzhokhar Tsarnaev an "enemy combatant." It can go ahead and choose to
try him in criminal court, rather than a military commission, but that's a
completely different question.

And don't forget: Eric Holder
originally decided to try Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in a civilian trial, even
though KSM was an "enemy
combatant."

In the U.S. the Islamic supremacists are cannier: they
denounce acts of jihad terror and then turn around and oppose every
measure designed to prevent them. "Norway: Muslims praise Boston
jihadis," by Nicolai Sennels in Islam Versus Europe, April 23:

"The Islamic group Prophet's Ummah has repeatedly and
publicly praised terrorist acts carried out abroad. Also the terrorist
attack in Boston on Monday is hailed by the leader of the extreme
Norwegian group. On his facebook page Ubaydullah Hussain writes, 'To
hell with Boston and the U.S., and may Allah destroy America.' The
leader of Prophet's Ummah has also posted pictures of the terrorists on
their profile and calls the brothers a pair of 'real lions.'"
